Electoral District (2011):
@9D8TS7BNew Democratic2yrs2Y
Yes, anyone who pays taxes and passes a basic test demonstrating understanding of politics should be allowed to vote
@96RTBYZ2yrs2Y
Educated tax paying and tested on knowledge of system and what are the platforms and policies up for election
@8TJ4NQW4yrs4Y
Yes, as long as the person is responsible and educated
Yes voters under 18 just have to pass a basic test of political
@8QR7G7V4yrs4Y
No because before voting you must become more mature and more independent in order to not treat an election like a joke, a good example of what happens when you treat and election like a joke is Donald trump who is not only a tax evader and racist but also a rapist and that absolutely makes me sick to my stomach
@8QLZ6T74yrs4Y
It should be lowered, but a baseline test should be administered to all voters
@8QBPS524yrs4Y
depending on the circumstances. in america, the reelection of trump would’ve hurt/affected LGBT/POC and their communities. minors were watching their rights be debated. in an instance like that, i think the vote should be lowered to 16. plus my generation seems to understand politics and the importance of having good representatives
@8QB4ZLN4yrs4Y
No but elderly should not be allowed to vote because their opinions are outdated
@8PXX99S4yrs4Y
You should be able to vote at 16
@8PK9B8F4yrs4Y
No, but only because we aren’t properly educated on democracy and all matters that surround it.
@8PK87HQ4yrs4Y
Yes. Age is not a sign of maturity. We should give opportunities to younger and involved citizens.
@98QNBF4New Democratic2yrs2Y
Yes, but there should be a basic test demonstrating one’s understanding of politics for anyone able to vote.
@7PTCG383yrs3Y
No, it should be raised to age 21 to help ensure a more informed voting public
@7PTCG383yrs3Y
No, it should be raised to age 21 to help ensure a more well-informed, tax paying voter
@7PTCG383yrs3Y
No, it should be raised to age 21
@87W9GJ44yrs4Y
If they're under 18 and pay taxes, they have the right to vote. Or they shouldn't be taxed
@8QDSNZY4yrs4Y
Personally I'm satisfied with the current voting age but if the majority of the people support a lower voting age I will support the popular will of the people.
